Grandstream GSC3506_CB Ceiling Mount Bracket for GSC3506 V2 and GSC3506

Overview

The Grandstream GSC3506_CB (Ceiling Bracket V2) is a telescopic support frame that sits on a suspended ceiling grid and carries the weight of a GSC3506 V2 or GSC3506 in-ceiling paging speaker. You need it when the ceiling tile on its own is not strong enough to hold the speaker. It can also be screwed to a ceiling beam for a fixed install.

Is it right for you?

• If the ceiling tile can bear more than 4 kg, no bracket is needed: the speaker can hang from the tile.
• If the tile can bear 4 kg or less but the ceiling grid supports more than 6 kg, fit this bracket so the grid takes the load.
• It fits the GSC3506 V2 and the original GSC3506. It is not documented for the GSC3516, which comes with its own wall and ceiling brackets.
• The tile must be thinner than 27 mm, and the grid slot height minus the tile thickness must be more than 8 mm.

Key features

• Adjustable length of 370 to 435 mm or 570 to 635 mm, so it spans common ceiling tile sizes.
• Hooks onto T-shaped or triangular ceiling grid rails, or screws to a ceiling beam.
• Eight M4 screws lock the telescopic length once set.
• The centre opening lines up with the 230 mm speaker cut-out.

What else you need

• A GSC3506 V2 or GSC3506 speaker: this is the bracket only, and the GSC3506 V2 does not include it in its box.
• Screws for fixing the bracket to the ceiling tile or beam, which are not supplied.

Installation

An installer fitting the speaker can fit the bracket in the same visit. Cut the 230 mm hole with the template from the speaker box, set the bracket to the tile length and lock it with the M4 screws, hook it onto the grid rails or screw it to the beam, align the opening with the hole, then mount the speaker as described in its own quick installation guide.

Before you buy

• Bracket only: the speaker is sold separately.
• Screws for fixing the bracket to the tile or beam are not supplied.
• Check the tile thickness (under 27 mm) and the grid slot clearance (more than 8 mm after the tile) before ordering.
